Estadio Nacional de Fútbol Pedro Marrero is a multi-purpose stadium in Havana, Cuba. Built as a baseball stadium, it is now used primarily for football matches, and is the former home of CF Ciudad de La Habana. The stadium holds 30,000 and was built in 1929.
Originally named Gran Stadium Cervecería Tropical (or familiarly, La Tropical), it hosted the 1930 Central American and Caribbean Games, the 1937 Bacardi Bowl and many Cuban League baseball games. After the revolution, it was renamed for Pedro Marrero, a young man who died in the attack on the Moncada Barracks.[2]
